The Big Bash League 2024-25 will see Hobart Hurricanes, who are in desperate need of a win, take on the confident Perth Scorchers in Match 7 at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Saturday, December 21. Both teams come into this match with very different stories from their last games, which makes this clash all the more interesting.

Hurricanes Need Their Batters To Show Up

Hobart Hurricanes had a nightmare start to their campaign. Against the Renegades, their batting lineup collapsed faster than a sandcastle in a storm. By the 8th over, they were struggling at 40/8, and it looked like they might not even reach 50.

Skipper Nathan Ellis came to the rescue with a gritty 35 off 29 balls, dragging his team to 74. Their bowlers gave it a shot, with Ellis leading from the front again, picking up 2/12 in three overs.

But defending such a tiny total was a lost cause. The Renegades chased it down in just nine overs, handing Hobart a six-wicket defeat. If the Hurricanes want to bounce back, their big guns like Matthew Wade, Ben McDermott, and Tim David need to step up. The top order can’t afford another no-show.

Scorchers Are Flying High

Perth Scorchers kicked off their season with a convincing six-wicket win over the Melbourne Stars. Their bowlers were on fire, with Jhye Richardson leading the way with stunning figures of 3/19.

Lance Morris and Jason Behrendorff chipped in with wickets, while Ashton Agar and Cooper Connolly kept things tight. The Scorchers restricted the Stars to 146/9, and though their chase wasn’t flawless, it was steady.

After a dismal start, Cooper Connolly anchored the innings with a solid 64 off 51 balls. Skipper Ashton Turner (37*) and Nick Hobson (27*) made sure there were no hiccups as Perth wrapped up the game with 17 balls to spare. The Scorchers will be brimming with confidence and looking to make it two wins in two.

How Will the Bellerive Oval Pitch Behave?

The Bellerive Oval is a pretty balanced venue and it offers something for everyone. Pacers will get some movement early on, but as the game progresses, batting becomes easier. Recent games at this ground have shown that teams chasing tend to do well, so expect the captain winning the toss to field first. A score of 170+ should be a winning score on this track.
